Very privileged to see @PlutoPlaysUK new play based on a care home during the pandemic at Parliament today. Really emotional and thought provoking panel discussion with Care Professionals afterwards especially on the first day of #TheCovidInquiry

Very proud to be part of the cast for this at The Ledward Centre Brighton. Along with @CAESummerskill @MarieFortune @PlutoPlaysUK Play reading with a QnA afterwards. How did care homes cope during Covid and how does an older LGBTQ+ woman cope with the prospect of going into care
This important and moving 'must see' event is today, in Brighton, at 4pm. Hope you can make it along!
